Product Description

CandyShell: Mighty slim protection

Our patented CandyShell is the best of both worlds: an iPhone 5/5s case that looks as good as it protects. Its patented dual-layer design has been drop tested against military-grade protection standards, yet it's slim enough to slide in and out of pockets with ease.

CandyShell Inked

High-resolution graphics wrapped around a sleek, military-grade protective case with a durable coating for patterns that won't fade or scratch. Help your iPhone 5/5s make an impact, and take one, with CandyShell Inked from Speck.

CandyShell Card

Card-carrying case complete with military-grade protection. Ditch your wallet during your morning jog, a day at work, or a night on the town with a convenient side-loading slot that holds up to 3 cards and cash. Carry more with less with CandyShell Card for iPhone 5/5s from Speck.

CandyShell Grip

Military-grade protection with raised rubber ridges for the perfect no-slip grip. The CandyShell Grip case is ideal for serious texters, hardcore gamers, or anyone who wants a better grip on their phone. Give your butterfingers a break with CandyShell Grip for iPhone 5/5s from Speck.

I ordered this case from Amazon and the colors were different than as shown in the picture [but Amazon has corrected the photo since then].

Now, about the case itself. This is my 3rd Speck Candyshell case. For my iPhone 4S, I had the Candyshell and the Candyshell Flip, and both provided excellent protection. I drop my iPhone about once a week, and there is never any damage to the phone or the case from these drops.

The candyshell flip case for iphone 5 is made of identical material and has the same design as the one for the 4S. On all of my Candyshell cases for 4S and 5, the earphone hole is big enough for apple earbuds but too small for many other earphones, and the hole for the lightning connector isn't big enough for Apple's new lightning-to-30-pin adapter. But the "flip" feature solves both problems. The bottom section of the "flip" case folds all the way back, not just half-way (as shown in the photos at Speck's website).

If you read a lot of customer reviews of Candyshell cases, you will see one common complaint: very fine scratches accumulate pretty quickly on the Candyshell's glossy surface (which is mainly just the back of the case). The scratches are more noticeable on darker color cases than lighter ones. To me, this really isn't a big deal: After some time, they form a kind of patina on the back of the case, which makes it less shiny. When I'm holding the phone, the back is facing away from me, so I don't see it. Other people may see the back of your case, but not close up so they probably won't notice these super-fine scratches. I don't think these scratches significantly reduce the case's aesthetic value. But this is just my opinion. Some people are pretty upset about this, and their opinion is just as valid as mine.Read more ›

I looked at tons of different cases before choosing this one. I wanted to protect my investment (Iphones aren't cheap!), but I also wanted something functional and with a little style. I chose Speck because my husband swears by their macbook cases and they have a great reputation. I didn't buy mine from Amazon, but in store at Target. It is this exact model and color though.

What I like about this case:It has the rubber lip around the edge of the screen, so if (when, inevitably) the phone is dropped it protects the screen from hitting. This feature works great. The rubber inside and hard bodied outside provides great protection without being too bulky.The folding bottom half. A lot of cases don't allow for your phone to dock properly, or fit certain headphone jacks tightly, because the case gets in the way. If you use the apple adapter piece to turn your old iphone/ipod charger into a new lighting charger it will never work with most cases because it is wide bodied, and the case only has a small hole. This folds down for easy access, and the crease where it folds is built well and strong enough to last through multiple flips a day.It's stylish without being gaudy. I like that it can be feminine, with the pink accents, without being covered in rhinestones, graphics, or give on protection for the sake of style.

Where this case if flawed:The edge around the bottom front of the phone's rubber quickly began to tear and break away. It began folding INSIDE when the bottom was flipped closed within a month or two. Within about 4 months, right outside the retailers exchange period, the actual hard plastic shell underneath the rubber broke (right around the hole for the charger).Read more ›

Nice shock absorption, but the rubber at flip area started to fall apart within a few months. And I never even opened the flip. Too expensive for this short a lifespan. I should have sent it to Speck for replacement, but didn't have the time. Waste of money.

Nice case, feels high quality (not cheesy) and fits the new iphone5 perfectly. The volume and power button are both covered in rubber but it does not inhibit use at all, the silence switch, lightening port and headphone jack port are all exposed. If there were covers for the lightening port and headphone jack I would have rated it 5 stars. I was concerned that having a case that opens 1/3 from the bottom by just flipping back would be a weakness but so far the case has stayed in place and you can hardley tell that it even opens by folding backwards.

I love everything about the case except for that it is hard to hear people when I talk on the phone. I have tested it with and without the case, and it is definitely the case. Trying to decide if I want to buy a new case or keep this one.

This case started out great, cool colors, nice design. But, the case that I once loved is now UGLY. I purchased the pool blue/wild salmon pink color of this case. The blue still looks nice, although it does get scratches. The pink rubber parts, however, have faded and started too fall apart. Pieces of the rubber have come off on the front of the case and are pulling away from the plastic.

For reference, i purchased this case on February 14th, 2013. The case lasted 4 months before pieces started coming off. The fading started much quicker.

So, if you only want a case for a month or so, it may look good for that long. But if you're like most of us, looking for a case for longer use, you will probably want to skip this one.

UPDATE - I contacted Speck about the case. They have a 1 year warranty on products. BUT, they said there are a lot of counterfeits out there (amazon, eBay, etc...). I could send it to them with a warranty claim, but if its fake, of course I would be out of luck. If its real, they would replace it. I probably will not send it back, but beware unauthorized sellers. You could be buying a fake.
